Approximately 1.6% of Israel's population is Druze, and a large percentage of Druze men serve in the IDF, with a significant portion in combat roles, according to the Jewish Virtual Library and Museum of Tolerance Jerusalem. While the exact percentage of Druze serving in the IDF isn't specified, it's often noted that a large proportion of Druze men, around 80%, are conscripted into the military, and roughly 39% of those serving are in combat roles, according to the Museum of Tolerance Jerusalem. This is in contrast to Israeli Arabs, who are exempt from mandatory military service, says Pew Research Center.
